Sony: Corporate Strategy Meeting 2024.5.23 | Business Segment Meeting
- Thread starter Puff
- Start date
It's 90% true. Sony has done very little that makes me, a long time PS fan, say "they really deserve all this success!" And with Xbox being even worse than last gen, they're now the de facto console more than ever.
They were both stuttering like crazy lmao, neither could say anything definitive and pretty much gave non answers.
if you had to choose between the greater evil. Stella Blade Hot Babes edition vs PC community?I truly despise the PC community & their platform

If those people are noticing and started asking questions... It must be a coincidence.
Shareholders aren't dumb lol. If a company misses targets they're going to try to turn over every rock to find out why. Except, of course, when it comes to Microsoft. Apparently they don't gaf why Xbox division has been failing for over a decade.
M$ in the court said that they fixed reports to shareholders, picked and chose what to show. Plus, they always hide expenses over other branches.
Sony doesn't have much space to do that.
Hulst and co were stuttering with no answers, it isn't going any better from now on and shareholders will push them even more in the future.
Another presentation, another record broken and another astroturfing campaign squashed.
Can anyone please link the business meeting where Hermen was the main guy speaking? Thanks in advance.
For some reason, I can only find the one with Hiroki Totoki and Kenichiro Yoshida.

Xbox have marketing deals with so many devs and publishers:
Assassin's Creed Shadows
Star Wars Outlaws
Call of Duty
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater
Visions of Mana
Persona
Yakuza
Metapher: ReFantazio
One of the current major problems with PlayStation. Securing 3rd party marketing deals. I wouldn’t be surprised if Xbox has the marketing rights to GTA6 & Kingdom Hearts 4.

Maybe Sony didn't have marketing slots available for big multiplatform games due to having way more 2024 console exclusives, which I may forget some but the released and announced ones are:
- TLOU2R
- Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
- Granblue Fantasy Relink
- Helldivers 2
- Foamstars
- Pacific Drive
- MLB
- Stellar Blade
- Rise of the Ronin
- V Rising
- Silent Hill the Short Message
- Destiny The Final Shape
- Concord
- Zenless Zone Zero
- Astro Bot
- Silent Hill 2
- Convallaria
- Lost Soul Aside
- Where Winds Meet
- Infinity Nikki
- Until Dawn
- Phantom Blade Zero
- VR games like Metro Awakening or Alien
Still considering this, they had the marketing rights of games like Dragon's Dogma 2, Monster Hunter Wilds or Judas, Dave the Diver (also on PC and Switch but not in Xbox) or Black Myth: Wukong (apparently unintendedly temporal console exclusive, like Baldur's Gate 3).
We're going to see Sony spending less and less on 3rd party exclusivity deals and marketing deals. They're not worth much at this point.
Why does Sony need a marketing deal for Persona? The vast majority of people who are going to play any Persona game are already going to be on Playstation.
It's a waste of money, largely with diminishing returns that could otherwise be spent on IP creation or IP acquisition, with significantly better margins.
What is the point of these deals if Xbox is dead? I'm ok with this, invest in games instead, at least for now.
